Description of soil MBFKVs~~~~A (Fork River)
Classification | R.HG |
---|---|
Profile | Agricultural soil profile The soil has been disturbed by agriculture. |
Kind of material | Mineral The soil material is primarily composed of mineral particles. |
Water table | Unspecified period The water table is present in the soil during an unspecified period. |
Root restrictions | First layer The growth of plant roots is restricted by the first (uppermost) layer. |
Type of root restricting layer | Salinity Salinity (conductivity > 4 dS/m) |
Drainage | Poorly drained Water is removed so slowly in relation to supply that the soil remains wet for a comparatively large part of the time the soil is not frozen. Excess water is evident in the soil for a large part of the time. Subsurface flow or groundwater flow, or both, in addition to precipitation are the main water sources; there may also be a perched water table, with precipitation exceeding evapotranspiration. Soils have a wide range in available water storage capacity, texture, and depth, and are gleyed subgroups, Gleysols, and Organic soils. |
